Method
- Step 1Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add mince and cook, stirring to break up lumps, for 5 minutes or until mince changes colour. Stir in pasta sauce and beans. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
- Step 2Meanwhile, cook the rice in a saucepan of salted boiling water following packet directions or until just tender. Add the corn and cook for a further 3 minutes or until the rice is tender. Drain well. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Notes
You can make the savoury mince up to a day ahead. Cool and store in an airtight container in the fridge. To reheat, place in a large non-stick frying pan and stir over low heat until hot. This mince mixture is also great with pasta such as penne. Add 2 tbs sliced jalapeno chillies to mince mixture and 2 tbs chopped fresh coriander leaves to sour cream, if desired.
